Customer Reviews:
Great foundation work for a career in law enforcement March 23, 2010
C. Dulick
I was lucky enough to have Mr. Dabney as a professor. I still refer to the transactional nature of crime when I instruct recruits.
A great deal of law enforcement involves predicting future behavior.
Read this book. You'll understand crime and criminals a little better.
